GAMIFICATION

Monitoring progress and tokens used

Problem

Users have low motivation to return and continue using the application.

Solution

Monitor the progress of users and the resources (tokens) they spend and display them. User is encouraged to collect the maximum number of tokens to reach milestones. Users perceive progress as a challenge and more often return to its resolution. The pattern can be used in a mobile or web applications.

Example: Cripto Kitties

Monitoring the progress of users and the resources (tokens) spent by the user.

Connected patterns

Rewarding users with points, using tokens only if they add value and ranking users.
